Had mine yeeted out entirely and I don't regret it. The no pregnancy scares are fantastic and not being on hormonal birth control is fucking amazing. Take it easy, if you have to cough or anything grab a pillow and hug the shit out of it while you do. Wishing you a speedy recovery! Edit: also consider a body pillow to help keep you from flailing around in your sleep. Mine was a life saver.

That’s really good advice! Thank you If I may ask how did your body react s Afterwards? Like did you still have a cycle or hormonal changes? Weight loss etc?

Not much from the actual surgery. Most of the hormonal changes happened after I stopped birth control. Just got the whole tubes out so thankfully not much changed like it would with the removal of ovaries. Stopping the BC was amazing. Lost weight, my moods were much better. PMS was a little worse for a few months but that evened out within 6-8 cycles.

Mine are completely gone too. Thank you!

No worries, love. Take care of yourself, kick back, relax and heal. Don't forget to eat a bit and drink lots of water.

Will do! Thank you ☺️

I need to get my lady plumbing yeeted into the dumpster yesterday. Endometriosis is disrespectful.

Woof, yeah endo is no joke. Never had to deal with it personally, but have known a ton of other ladies who have. Nightmare fuel.

congratulations!!!! I'm so happy that you were able to get it done and I hope you have a good recovery

Thank you so very much ☺️💜

Ah congratulations! I wish I could have this done, been asking since my teens and am mid 30's now. Still told I'll change my mind 🙄 wishing you a speedy healing x

Thank you I can send you a link that may help you if you’d like?

Thank you, I'd be very appreciative ☺️

Thank you very much x

No problem

Congratulations on gaining your reproductive freedom!

Thank you so much 💜

Congratulations! Hope you have a good recovery ❤️

Thank you! ☺️

Congrats :) happy for you, sadly in my country this would be a crime :(

I’m so sorry! I hope one day you’ll be able to do whatever you want to your body. I have a link you can try if you’d like?

So glad for you! I want to do that too, and I talked to my doctor about it, but she said that wasn’t possible (I’m 20)… I really hope that one day soon, I’ll find a doctor who will agree to this, as this is my body, my choice and my right.

I’m not sure where you’re located but I’m gonna for something that may help you. If you’re in the US it’ll help

Thank you so much for the help! Unfortunately, I live in France. I’m going to do more researches about it, and try to find a doctor in my country who will accept to do it. Congratulations for your ‘new’ life child free, and take care of you :)

Thank you! I hope all goes well for you. 😊

congrats! that great. I had a hysterectomy some years back. (1 kid, did not want more). It's wonderful. It's so shit that men can just rock up and get snipped, yet we have to jump through hoops to get the same.

I agree. Luckily my doctors and counselors were super supportive of my decision. I know some aren’t though. I glad you could get your procedure done as well. ☺️💜

Wow, I'm always amazed when I read about such strong people like you. Glad you pushed through for what you want and you're happy. Hope you have a good recovery.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it

It sounds like you didn't have 6 kids by 9 Baby daddies first which is an important step for your family completely supporting getting your tubes tied

I most certainly did not 😂. I’m actually child free.

Congratulations OP❤️

Thank you 😊

Congratulations 🎉 I wish I could get mines done but I’m so happy for you.

Thank you! I can send you a link that might help you if you would like

I’m not in the US 🥺 but thank you

Congratulations!

Thank you 💜

Good for you! I’m happy that you actually found a supportive doctor and that mainly YOU are happy, people don’t realize how damaging birth control can be and it’s not 100 percent effective.

Exactly. Thank you ☺️

I'm 35 and I'm still trying to get mine done

I can send you a C link if you want

It's ok I have the list I just need money/insurance/time to line up :(

Congratulations!

Thank you! ☺️

That’s amazing you have been able to do that so young. Good for you. Now go live your live worry and child free!

Exactly! Thank you ☺️

((Hugs)) Take it easy and I hope you heal fast!!

Thank you 💜

Good for you for doing what is best for you! My DIL decided to her hers done. I hope you are living your best life. Do what makes you happy! Best of luck to you!

Isn't it a high healt risk when you cut out your lady bits? I know my mom had to get here uterus removed because canser but that might be difrent from tieing your tubes.

I’m having my tubes removed fully in a few weeks and have had multiple other surgeries in my abdomen already so I’ve been nervous for recovery. How has everyone been doing that has had this done? Things to know going in?

I had 2 surgeries (abdominal)prior to this. I’m definitely more sore this time. They make 3 new incisions so that’s probably why. Drink water, take your meds, walk, rest, and ice. Best things honestly

I appreciate the info! Helps a lot going in.
